I thought I would take the opportunity of the blog's 300th post to share with you the interesting contents in the latest issue of the journal Civil War History (not related to this site). The field of environmental history has been an emerging one over the forty years and the Civil War is not outside this field. The fine staff at the journal have put together a review essay and two articles dealing with environmental history of the war, specifically considering an overview of the literature on the field and the war, the nature of the war in the Trans-Mississippi, and preservation at Gettysburg.
I received the issue of the journal in the mail today and I look forward to reading it in detail in the coming weeks, but my brief examination of the article "The Nature of Preservation: The Rise of Authenticity at Gettysburg" by Brian Black shows it to be good both from an environmental history perspective, but also public history, as it touches on the changing landscape of the battlefield in the years after the battle, including the controversy over the battlefield tower that was demolished several years ago. Now with the new interpretive center and further reconstruction of the natural landscape in recent years, this article is quite timely.
I encourage interested readers to consider subscribing to this journal as well as the Journal of the Civil War Era. Civil War History has a long history and track record, being in its fifty-eighth volume, while The Journal of the Civil War Era is the new flagship publication of the Society of Civil War Historians, and has proven to be good in its first few years. Journals are worthwhile, as they contain articles on a variety of topics, which can be more accessible to some than large monographs. Plus, they are great resources for learning about new books in the field through their book reviews.

Bookkeeping and Accounting FAQs
What do bookkeeping services include?
Bookkeeping services include the tracking of all expenses and income transactions to ensure they match the financial statements that are being created. It also involves reconciling bank account records with monthly reports from your vendors, suppliers or customers so you can see whether any money has been overpaid or underpaid. Your bookkeeper will then calculate your net worth and balance sheet to determine your company's financial position.
Bookkeeping services are often used in connection with a business' accounting needs, but they can also be helpful for personal finances as well. Bookkeepers offer the following three primary services: record keeping, balance sheets and tax preparation.
What are basic bookkeeping services?
Bookkeeping services are often used in connection with a business' accounting needs, but they can also be helpful for personal finances as well. Bookkeepers offer the following three primary services: record keeping, balance sheets and tax preparation.
- Record keeping involves maintaining financial records that must be reviewed regularly to ensure accuracy and compliance with regulations such as the Internal Revenue Service.
- Balance sheets are a snapshot of your business' financial position on one particular day and provide details about its assets, liabilities and equity at that time. Balance sheets can be very helpful in determining whether or not you're making money or losing money--and they can also help determine how much cash is needed to keep the business running.
- Tax preparation can be the most challenging part of owning a small business because there are so many rules to follow, regulations to comply with and deadlines to meet.
What are the benefits of bookkeeping services?
Record keeping and bookkeeping services offer important benefits to your business. They help keep you in compliance with the law, make sure you're saving money on taxes, ensure accurate financial transactions for tax purposes, and provide peace of mind that all is well financially.
Financial information should be reviewed regularly by people who have a professional understanding of accounting principles and who are able to spot any irregularities.
Do I need a bookkeeper if I have an accountant?
Many businesses have both a bookkeeper and an accountant. The primary difference is that the accountant handles taxes, while the bookkeeper handles all things financial.
Accountant work can be outsourced if your company doesn't need it full time or you just don't want to manage that aspect of your business yourself. However, there is usually a higher cost for outsourcing accounting tasks.
A bookkeeper will help you keep track of money coming in and out, prepare financial statements, balance your books at the end of every month or quarter and make sure that all taxes are paid appropriately.
What accounting software should be used?
There are many reputable options to choose from, but your best bet is generally QuickBooks.
It's user-friendly and has a large community of certified advisors that can help you when needed.
If you're not sure which way to go, I highly recommend contacting an accountant for a consultation.
What is payroll accounting?
Payroll accounting is the process of calculating and paying employees, withholding taxes (state and federal), filing unemployment insurance claims, depositing withholdings to government agencies and usually includes:
- Calculating gross wages in accordance with tax rules
- Deducting income for personal allowances as well as payroll deductions such as retirement benefits or health insurance
- Calculating and paying federal, state, social security and Medicare taxes (FICA) to government agencies
- Reporting wages on an employee's W-G form or Form W-25. Employers must also report any withheld income tax to the Internal Revenue Service on a Quarterly Employment Tax Return schedule quarterly.
Other services needed might include:
- Payment of income tax on employer's contributions to retirement benefits (401k)
- Reporting and paying withholding taxes for employees' health or disability insurance premiums.
- The company also pays into social security, Medicare and unemployment insurance programs as required by law. It is not uncommon that an employee will have various withholdings from different government agencies.
How is tax preparation handled by a bookkeeping service?
A bookkeeping service will not only be able to provide a company with its quarterly and yearly tax filings, but it can also assist in preparing the necessary withholdings.
The companies must report any withheld income tax to the Internal Revenue Service on a Quarterly Employment Tax Return schedule quarterly.
In addition:
- Payment of income taxes for employer's share of social security and Medicare taxes
- Reporting wage information to the Social Security Administration for purposes of paying social security benefits
- Payment of unemployment insurance (UI) taxes, which is reported quarterly on a Federal Unemployment Tax Act Schedule A form filed with the IRS. The company must also provide written notice to employees telling them how much they owe or are owed in UI taxes.
- Payment of state employment taxes on wages paid to employees, which is reported quarterly and may be done using one of the following methods:
- Paying unemployment tax by making payments directly to a state agency (some states allow this method only for certain periods or with respect to specific types of employers).
- Making the appropriate payments to a state unemployment compensation fund and filing regular reports with the agency that handles such taxes.
- Filing one Federal Unemployment Tax Act Schedule H form each year, which is due on January 31 of the following calendar year for wages paid in December of the previous year. The company must also provide written notice of payment to each individual who has been paid for wages in a specified state during the period.
- Filing with the Department of Labor and paying employer taxes, including unemployment tax on any compensation you pay an individual if that person is not your employee (for example, independent contractors).
What Type of Records Do I Need to Keep For My Business?
If you're using QuickBooks Pro and Enterprise, your accounting records will be automatically uploaded to tax forms.
Smaller businesses can use any other digital solution as well.
You'll need invoices from vendors for supplies and products that are used in your day-to-day operations.
For more independent businesses, you'll need to get a CPA or tax lawyer on retainer just in case something goes wrong with the IRS.
Most likely, one of the most important - and often forgotten about - pieces in running any type or size business is getting an accurate handle on your financial records.
If you're a small business owner, it's important that you know the different types of accounting software solutions available to ensure accurate and secure record keeping. Accounting is one of those tasks in which the right solution can make all the difference for your company - whether it's big or small.
How Long Should I Keep Records For My Business?
Every business should keep records for at least six years - the more important, the longer. If you're operating under a specific state or federal law, then that time frame may be different but either way it's best to maintain your documents as long as possible because there are so many things that can happen in a given amount of time and having up-to-date records can be key to minimizing the impact.

No one wants to get in trouble, and just because you may not have had an incident yet doesn't mean that you won't--so make sure your records are up-to-date!

Nation honors King on day of Obama inauguration
ATLANTA - Commemorative events for the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. slid seamlessly into celebrations of the swearing-in Monday of the nation's first black president, with many Americans moved by the reminder of how far the country has come since the 1960s.
"This is the dream that Dr. King talked about in his speech. We see history in the making," said Joyce Oliver, who observed King Day by visiting the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis, Tenn., built on the site of the old Lorraine Motel, where King was assassinated in 1968.
In Atlanta, at the 45th annual service for the civil rights leader at the church where he was pastor, those gathered in the sanctuary were invited to stay to watch President Barack Obama's second inauguration on a big-screen TV.
As the nearly three-hour service closed at Ebenezer Baptist Church, organizers suggested forgoing the traditional singing of "We Shall Overcome" because the inauguration would begin. But the crowd shouted protests, so the choir and congregation sang the civil rights anthem before settling in to watch the events in Washington.
In the nation's capital, dozens took pictures of the King statue before walking to the National Mall for the inauguration.
Nicole Hailey, 34, drove all night with her family from Monroe, N.C. She attended Obama's first inauguration four years ago and was carrying a commemorative Metro ticket from that day with Obama's face on it.
She and her family visited the King memorial before the swearing-in.
"It's Martin Luther King's special day," she said. "We're just celebrating freedom."
At the ceremonial inauguration, Obama took the oath on a Bible once owned by King. He called it "a great privilege." The King Bible was one of two used; the other had belonged to Abraham Lincoln.
In Columbia, S.C., civil rights leaders paused during their annual King Day rally to watch the inauguration on a big screen. Most of the crowd of several hundred stayed to watch Obama's address.
"You feel like anything is possible," Jelin Cunningham, a 15-year-old black girl, said of Obama's presidency. "I've learned words alone can't hurt or stop you, because there have been so many hateful things said about him over the past four years."
At the Atlanta service, King's youngest daughter, Bernice King, said the country had been through a difficult year, with divisive elections, military conflicts and natural disasters.
"We pray that this day will be the beginning of a new day in America," she said. "It will be a day when people draw inspiration from the life and legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. It will be a day when people realize and recognize that if it were not for Dr. King and those who fought the fight fought in that movement, we would not be celebrating this presidency."
She stressed her father's commitment to nonviolence, saying that after the 1956 bombing of the family's home in Montgomery, Ala., her father stood on the porch and urged an angry, armed crowd to fight with Christian love - not guns.
"This apostle of nonviolence perhaps introduced one of the bravest experiences of gun control that we've ever heard of in the history of our nation," she said.
The service also kicked off a year of celebrations of the 50th anniversary of King's "I Have a Dream" speech, delivered Aug. 28, 1963, in Washington. Students led by King's great-niece Farris Christine Watkins delivered sections of the speech in turn.
By the end, the crowd was on its feet, shouting, "Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!"
The keynote speaker was the Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, a socially conservative evangelical association. It marked the first time a Latino had been invited to deliver the King Day address at Ebenezer Baptist.
He urged the audience to complete King's dream.
"Silence is not an option when 30 million of our brothers and sisters live in poverty," he said. "Silence is not an option when 11 million undocumented individuals continue to live in the shadows."
Around the country, parades, service projects and memorials marked the holiday.
Visitors from as far as Europe thronged the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis. In Detroit, students beautified schools. Others painted murals honoring King in Arkansas, donated items to a food bank in Texas, and conducted a community health fair in Pennsylvania.
More than 500 people rallied outside the Alabama Capitol in Montgomery, where state employee Jessie Harris declared Obama's presidency was a sign of progress in "living the dream" that King spoke about.
"We have come far, but the struggle is not over," Harris said.

Today's Music: Love And Rockets – So Alive
Round and round we go, where it stops, no one knows. But it does leave plenty of time (amid the frustrations) to read blogs! Here's some of what I saw…
Jots From A Small Apartment is continuing to make great art. I Saw Bob Dylan In A Speedo is livin' life, and Sharp Little Pencil started posting again after her move, with a fun, beautiful poem.

Congratulations to WG for this weeks winning answer! And from the offered choices, the most popular was Have a built in fridge. Stocked with edible food.. Because Mystery Meatloaf is rarely good. Despite them saying it's good for you.
This week, the world prepares to celebrate the 4th of Jul-

A couple of weeks ago, we took the kids camping for the first time. Everything went surprisingly well, especially sleeping together like four sardines tucked into a tiny tent. The highlight, of course, was campfire cooking. We enjoyed hot dogs, corn on the cob, baked potatoes and baked beans. (Camping has a healthy image, but really, is all that unrefrigerated, smoky, burnt food good for you?) No surprise, but the campfire desserts were our favorites, especially our chocolate-chip-studded banana boats and warm, chocolaty gluten-free s'mores.
Kinnikinnick's S'moreables are good gluten-free graham cracker substitutes (for tips on making s'mores in your kitchen, rather than the campfire, see my Please, Sir, I Want S'mores post). But, honestly, the S'moreables are a little small and fragile when sandwiched around a jumbo marshmallow.
Inspired by a Time Out Chicago Kids article on alternate s'mores, my older daughter came up with some creative new ideas for gluten-free s'mores. My favorite, pictured above, was a circular s'mores sandwich, with a flame-kissed kosher marshmallow and a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup sandwiched between two Enjoy Life Gluten-Free Crunchy Chocolate Chip cookies. It was the perfect combo of oozy marshmallow, melty peanut butter and chocolate, and substantial chocolate chip cookies. (I have to say, I'm not a fan of the small, soft-baked Enjoy Life cookies that go stale quickly, but I like their new, big crunchy gluten-free cookies.)
And about those banana boats … based on a suggestion from our Girl Scouts leader, we made a vertical slit in a banana and its peel, stuffed some chocolate chips and marshmallows into the slit, and put it on the grate above the campfire to cook. (Or wrap the stuffed banana in tin foil and put in the coals.)
Now that's what I call a successful camping trip.

The Fedora Project Board serves this function, placing Fedora's leaders (both within the community and within Red Hat) at the highest level of decision making within the Fedora Project. Like any board of directors, the Fedora Project Board advises Fedora leadership and helps the project pursue broad goals. The Board does not generally implement practices, but instead relies on the recognized community leadership including but not limited to the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee to do so .
There are nine Board members: five elected by the community and four appointed by the Fedora Project Leader after consultation with the Board. Volunteers and Red Hat employees are eligible for all seats, and often volunteers are appointed or Red Hat employees are elected. This Board is ultimately accountable for the Fedora Project, and in that sense is responsible for guiding all of the Project's operational decisions. However, the Board strives at all times to invest decision-making power in the community wherever possible.
As with any very large community, it is often not possible for the Fedora community to arrive at unanimity on some of the issues with which the Board deals. To make progress on these issues, the Board cannot be purely a reactive decision-making body, and must sometimes lead actively by making decisions that are in the best interest of the continued health of the Fedora Project. By having an elected component, the Board seeks to bear not only the responsibility for making these decisions, but also to be accountable for them to the Fedora community. As is the case with any representative governance, not every decision will satisfy the entire constituency, but the Board seeks always to make decisions based on what is best for the continued progress of Fedora.
Additionally, there is a Chair appointed by Red Hat, who has veto power over any decision. The expectation is that this veto power will be used infrequently, as there are negative consequences that could arise from the frequent use of such power in a community project. Just as a CEO often serves as the bridge between a board of directors and a company's executive component, the Chair is a bridge between the Fedora Project Board and the larger Fedora community.
Board members are also usually active project participants, and therefore involve themselves in a number of routine matters and discussions. No Board member's statements should be interpreted as Board policy unless explicitly so noted and supported by minutes and announcements made through official channels.
The issues discussed by the Board generally fall into these categories:
- Issues escalated from a committee or other subgroup in the Fedora Project that has reached an impasse but requires a decision by informed consensus;
- Issues concerning oversight of subprojects that are not under FESCo purview;
- Issues that does not fall into the purview of any of the established committees or other subgroups, but requires a decision by informed consensus;
- Issues of strategic, as opposed to tactical, importance for Fedora that require leadership and vision from above the team or subproject level to achieve; or,
- Sensitive legal or personnel issues which require research and discussion to protect the interests of the Fedora Project or its sponsor(s).
Typically the last type of issue is discussed to some extent in private. Refer to the Contact section for more information.
The Board is also responsible for:
- Deciding issues regarding use of the Fedora trademarks
- Final arbitration of complaints related to project policies
Strategic Philosophy
To advance free software, we need to provide a sustainable integration of free software without cutting corners. By providing a positive first impression before and during installation and real use, we support Fedora's reputation as a leading and reliable product that attracts future users and contributors. To provide that integration and experience we must have a clear set of priorities to help all contributors decide how to allocate resources and resolve conflicts. These priorities are not meant to be exclusive, or to keep contributors from working on the parts of Fedora that matter to them.
These priorities will sometimes expose gaps where contributors need additional assistance, and allow them to seek it both within the community and by bringing in additional contributors to help, exclusively on their particular interest area if desired. While narrowing our focus in some areas, though, we must provide opportunities for exploration to all contributors within the framework of our core values and without impeding progress.
This statement was adopted at the Board meeting of 2010-02-11
The Fedora Project Board uses two mailing lists.
board-discuss (formerly "advisory-board") is a public list. Subscription is open to anyone, as are the archives. This list is the main discussion point for the Fedora Board, and the goal of the list is to either reach a decision, or to delegate the thread to a more appropriate location. For example, engineering-specific threads may get some comments on board-discuss, before being redirected to the devel list for in-depth discussion.
board-private is a private list. Its membership is restricted to the current Board members, and its archives are private. This list is only used for topics that cannot be discussed on the public board-discuss list.
Board members are also often present on the #fedora-board IRC channel on irc.freenode.net
If you have an issue to be worked on by the Board you can also open a ticket on the Board trac instance. This is a public issue tracker. If you have a particularly privacy- or security-sensitive issue, you may use the board-private trac instance instead. If an issue is not sensitive the discussion should be in the open, in the public trac or the board-discuss list.
Keeping track of open issues
Sometimes issues are opened for the Board to evaluate and solve in some manner. These issues may take multiple meetings to resolve. The Board would like these types of issues to end up in their trac instance so that the present state of the ticket can be identified. The Board will attempt to visit the current status of these issues at least once a month and post an update to the ticket. If the Board is unable to work on the ticket for some reason (for instance, long delays sometimes occur when the Board is waiting on another group to give feedback), the reason the ticket has seen no progress will be briefly noted in the ticket at that time.
If the Board seems to not be coming back to a ticket (for instance, the ticket isn't getting updated roughly once a month), it is okay to publically ask the Board what the status of the ticket is. This can be done on the #fedora-advisory-board IRC channel, the advisory-board mailing list, or at one of the Board's public IRC meetings (or any other place you can catch a Board member. These are just hints of appropriate locations to publically chastise the Board if they aren't getting back to issues in a timely manner).
Some decisions that the Board makes require followup decisions to be made and commitments by Board members to work on certain issues. The Board has written up a policy to help make sure that work gets done and decisions are made even between Board meetings. Take a look at the Decision Making document for details.
Meeting schedules and summaries can be found here. Some Board meetings are held via phone conference, and some meetings are public and held via IRC.

It started with a single post to Virginia Delegate Ryan McDougle's facebook wall. Now, it's become a trend that's sweeping the nation, like Silly Bandz or Brazilian waxes, and there's no sign of it letting up: women are flooding the Facebook walls of politicians who have attempted to legislate their way into women's health issues with graphically detailed descriptions of their genital maladies. Think period problems, concerns about strange bumps, requests for fertility advice, pregnancy scares, and more. Let's take a quick tour of which politicians have been besieged by menstruating constituents... and who has been spared.
The latest high profile victim of the Reign in Blood has been former Presidential candidate and current Texas Governor Rick Perry, who just last week took a political stand that led to his state's entire $36 billion women's health program being shut down. Perry, you see, was opposed to the Federal government dictating that a portion of the funds given to the program go to services provided by Planned Parenthood, and the state's Republican-led legislature passed a law barring the family planning organization from receiving funds. Even though Planned Parenthood of Texas was split into two completely separate corporations, one of which provides abortion services and the other of which provides family planning and sexual health services (the latter of which was the sole recipient of funds for the Women's Health Program), legislators wielding a puzzling vendetta against the low-cost health care provider Took a Stand. As a result, the state with the largest number of uninsured women in the nation with billions of federal dollars designed to help poor women.
People are mad about this, and understandably so. Some women are so angry that they've taken to the Rick Perry for President facebook page to give the self-appointed women's health expert an outpouring he'll never forget. Among the TMI-laced posts:
I'm at work and am experiencing the most uncomfortable itch you know where. I know I'm being punished for having a job and not being a wife and mother, but will you still take care of me? I'd like to stop by during my lunch hour.
Dr. Rick Perry, I had thyroid cancer and had to take a radioactive iodine pill back in August. They told me I would probably have irregular periods for a while, but I should go back to normal after 6 months or so. I'm really worried because I can feel the cramps like I'm going to get my period, but nothing has come out for a couple of months. I haven't had sex in a really long time either, so I know I couldn't be pregnant because we used a condom and I'm on birth control (originally prescribe to help control my PCOS symptoms of irregular periods.) Am I ever going to have a regular period again? Is it bad for those clots to not come out for so long? I'm worried because I want to have a baby some day when I get married, but I'm not ready for that yet. I want to be established financial with my husband before we have kids so that we can provide proper care. What do you think? Should I be worried about my period? It's really scary and I'm starting to hurt really bad sometimes.... =/
So far, no comment from Dr. Governor Perry. But millions of women eagerly await his expert diagnoses!
Not to be outdone, women have unleashed a tampon avalanche on the pages of Kansas Governor Sam Brownback as well. Kansas is currently on the cusp of passing a law that would, among other things (that rhyme with mandatory schmans schmaginal probe!), threaten the University of Kansas Medical School's OBGYN residency program's accreditation in jeopardy by barring the doctors employed there from teaching abortion procedures. And women there have vagina problems as well! One concerned Kansan wrote,
How can I get a commemorative edition of the Sam Brownback transvaginal probe? Can I call your office at (785) 296-3232?
Another wrote,
Governor, my boyfriend and I seem to be having some really serious issues. He wants a vasectomy (and I know that's okay with you since you haven't mentioned it as a point of contention in any of your speeches), but I'm concerned about how this will affect his future unborn children. Does a man have the right to decide whether or not he wants to have children? I know you think women don't, but I just wanted to check (I get so confused with all these politics as a woman, you see!) I am also having major problems with my period lately and thought I should let you know. I don't want you to think that your wonderful concern is falling on deaf ears! As you can see, so many women are counting on you and your knowledge of female parts! Please don't disappoint us!
But not every four-star general in the War on Ladyparts has been barraged with Facebook users eager for OBGYN expertise. Pennsylvania governor Tom Corbett, who helpfully suggested that women who don't want to look at their pre-abortion ultrasound should "just close their eyes," has been spared. California Republican Darrell Issa, who many of you may remember from that awful panel where a bunch of religious dudes explained why giving women birth control was hurting their feelings, has a page that's relatively unblemished. Women's health/God expert Rick Santorum's facebook wall is filled with mostly messages of support or disagreement, and very few attempted online medical consultations. And Senator Roy Blunt, father of the Blunt Amendment, which would have allowed any employer or insurance provider to refuse to cover any medical expense they deemed morally objectionable, has been left untouched and unbloodied.
While the practice of telling politicians like Rick Perry and Sam Brownback all about your soaked super plus tampons is sort of funny in that making jerks mad is funny, whether or not it really makes a difference in their itty bitty worldviews is up for debate. I want to believe that men like Dave Albo, who can't even bring themselves to say the word "vagina" aloud in public, could learn something about how women's anatomy works from this embarrassment. Or that Arizona's Debbie Lesko, who has repeated the Fox Newsian myth that there's only one kind of birth control pill, and it's available for $9 at Wal-Mart, and it works for literally everybody, will one day understand that the world of birth control is vast, varied, and not under her jurisdiction. But will drowning anti-lady politicians' social media presences in uterine updates demonstrate to legislators that it's time they change their ways?
As for Virginia Delegate Ryan McDougle, he (or some poor, unlucky intern) has scrubbed his page of the impromptu Uterus Monologues of last week, and now it seems that only people who "like" his page can even read the comments. Don't you just hate being overwhelmed by heavy flow, Delegate Ryan McDougle?

Little audience for 'Zero Dark Thirty' in Pakistan
ISLAMABAD (AP) — Pakistan stars in "Zero Dark Thirty," from early scenes at a detention site to the dramatic closing minutes as Navy SEALs assault the hideout of Osama bin Laden. But the Academy Award-nominated film about the hunt for the al Qaeda leader has sparked a controversy here about its portrayal of the country, and it will likely not be shown on the local big screen anytime soon.
Partly, the film taps into national discomfort that bin Laden was found to be living for years near Pakistan's equivalent of West Point and anger over the U.S. decision to enter its airspace and raid the compound without giving advance notice. Doubts about whether bin Laden was really hiding out for years in the city of Abbottabad are also common across Pakistan, a country where conspiracy theories often have more weight than fact.

But Pakistanis who have seen the film on DVD or Internet downloads are also making much of what they say are factual errors.
Nadeem F. Paracha, a columnist for the English language newspaper Dawn and a cultural critic in Pakistan, noted that in some scenes characters speak Arabic, whereas Pakistanis in fact speak Urdu or Pashto or one of the tens of other languages found here.
In other scenes protesters get right up to the U.S. Embassy gates when in reality the embassy is situated in an enclosed diplomatic enclave that demonstrators can't access. Some scenes that were supposed to show the frontier city of Peshawar looked more like 19th-century Delhi in India.
"How can you make a Hollywood blockbuster, put in so much money and get simple things wrong?" Paracha asked. "Instead of the film being taken seriously, it became a joke among Pakistanis."
The movie traces the arc of the CIA's decade-long hunt for bin Laden through the eyes of a young female analyst who spends most of her time ostensibly in Pakistan. Screenwriter Mark Boal visited Pakistan to do research, but the movie scenes were not shot here.
One scene that also raises questions shows a vaccination worker going to the compound door as part of the American plan to get DNA samples from the bin Laden family. The U.S. did in fact run a fake hepatitis-vaccination campaign, but in the movie it's portrayed as an attempt to vaccinate against polio. This could add suspicion to polio workers already facing attacks by militants in the tribal agencies.
Pakistan has only a few movie theaters that show English-language films, and none so far has aired "Zero Dark Thirty." All films shown at cinemas must be approved by a board of censors, and the head of the censor board, Dr. Raja Mustafa Hyder, said no distributor has applied for permission to show the film.
Whether or not it would actually make it past the censorship board is another question, considering that a representative of the powerful Pakistani military sits on the board.
After it came out that bin Laden had been living in Abbottabad and that the military failed to detect the American raiding party coming to get him, the once-revered Pakistan army found itself on the defensive. The film also highlights the cooperation between the CIA and Pakistan's intelligence agency during the early years after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States, a potentially embarrassing topic in a country with such vehement anti-American sentiment.
Jamshed Zafar, one of the leading importers and distributors of foreign films in Pakistan, said he decided after discussions with friends that it wasn't worth importing "Zero Dark Thirty."
"If you get into such controversy, you not only lose money but your reputation is also at stake," he said.
Any distributor or movie house that showed the movie might also be courting trouble with the public. Last year during demonstrations against an anti-Islam film crowds of right-wing Islamic hardliners burned some movie houses.
The fact that neighboring India — Pakistan's archenemy — substituted for many of the Pakistani street scenes has also raised concerns, said Rashid Khawaja, a Lahore-based film producer and distributor.
Until recently it was possible to purchase a DVD of the film in Islamabad. But at least two stores in the capital said in recent days that they stopped selling it because of rumors it had been banned. Another store was still selling the movie — albeit under the counter.
In Abbottabad, the DVD is available at local video stores but hasn't sold particularly well.
"This movie is about Osama and Abbottabad, and still I honestly say people living here are not showing much interest in it," said Akhtar Hussain.
Even in the city where people could hear the Navy SEALs as they swooped in on helicopters and flew away with bin Laden's body, there's still disbelief he was living so close.
College student Raheel Ahmed said he watched "Zero Dark Thirty" and came away thinking the movie's intent was to praise President Barack Obama.
"I don't know whether Osama was here," he said, "but Americans have defamed us by producing the movie."

Someone recently asked me how the fridge experiment was going, and I realized that I missed the anniversary of when we first unplugged! To me, that's a pretty good sign that the project is going well. The anniversary came and went totally unnoticed. I imagined (a year ago) that I'd want some sort of fanfare or some official celebration, but I realize that it is better this way.
Running our home without a fridge has become so much a part of our lives that it's almost mundane to us. I forget about it completely until someone asks.
Changing ice jugs is routine. Although we eat mainly fresh food, I don't shop daily as many people have asked (I have three kids, people, are you nuts!??!), we love dairy (we regularly have milk, yogurt, cheese, half and half and butter in there), and none of us have suffered from Listeria.
Is it for everyone? Well… I think that if we can do it with three children, probably most other families could too, certainly most single people. But I realize that living without a fridge in 2012 is pretty far on the other side of the extreme line for many people. It hasn't really been an inconvenience for us at all.
I think the key to making it successful for us has been thinking outside of the box. Many people we've talked to about it say they like the idea, but they could never do it because they prefer fresh food too much or that it's not possible in an urban environment. We are doing it in Denver and eating fresh foods (including meat and dairy)! It is basically like using a cooler when camping. We've even gone out of town and left it.
Of course it would not be practical for us at all if we did not have the freezer in the garage where we could regularly get ice jugs. But we run the freezer regardless.
So how long will we keep going? Right now, we don't see a reason to stop. The only question now is what to do with the refrigerator? Use it for storage for things prone to pests, like flour? Make a pantry out of it? A china cupboard? Long-term food storage area for the zombie apocalypse? Fireproof safe?
We're currently taking suggestions on that one.

Catholic principal regrets DeGeneres dance photo
NEWTOWN (AP) — The principal of a Catholic elementary school in suburban Philadelphia is apologizing to parents for having used a photo of celebrity Ellen DeGeneres on an invitation to an Oscars-themed graduation dance.
St. Andrew Elementary School principal Nancy Matteo wrote in an email to parents Tuesday that using the photo was "completely wrong" because DeGeneres "lives her life outside the teachings of the Catholic Church," Philly.com (http://bit.ly/1of34Uk) reported.
The site said it obtained the text of the email, which doesn't specifically mention DeGeneres' sexual orientation but calls her a "poor role model." DeGeneres came out as gay in 1997 and married actress Portia de Rossi in 2008.
"A role model, as defined by Webster's Dictionary, is a person who is unusually effective or inspiring in some social role, job, position, etc.," the email said. "This does not describe her at all. We work so hard to be good role models and then I go and do something stupid!"
DeGeneres hosted the Oscars in 2007 and 2014. The image on the invitation for the June 8 dance shows her holding an Oscar statue accompanied by the phrase "Live from the red carpet."
Matteo, who declined to comment on the email to Philly.com, said in the email that she was "obviously NOT thinking" when she included the photo. She asked that the invitations be returned so she can destroy them and distribute new ones.
Spokesman Ken Gavin of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia said the Bucks County principal apologized of her own accord after parents questioned the photo. He said Catholic schools are "firmly rooted in Gospel-based values and the teachings of the Church" and any promotional materials developed by the schools are expected to "feature images and themes that correspond with their core mission and identity."
"That approach is logical and our school families have a right to expect it," he said.
